Murkowski is finished within the GOP no matter what she does. She is going to get a Republican primary challenge in 2022, and she is probably going to lose to that challenger. Her ONLY chance of staying in office after 2022 is as an Independent caucusing with Democrats.

Romney has $250 million in the bank and will be 77 at the end of his term. There is almost no chance he is running again, so he can do whatever he wants. He certainly doesn't need to take any shit from McConnell.

Collins would seem more plausible Zambero Nov 2020 #4

77 is nothing in the Senate Polybius Nov 2020 #8
